SJADVENTURES-First when i showed my son the ropes about deer hunting scrapes rubs trails that lead to bedding and trails that lead to feeding areas i then told him he should find his own spot that way he'll learn more about it if it's a good spot or bad and no i didn't help him put up his ladder stand and he was 14 then and if my wife wants to hunt i would do the same .Thats like me taking her fishing and stand there taking her fish off the hook for her if she can't take her own fish off she doesn't need to be out there . I take it your one of those guys that take someone hunting do all the work then wake them up to go hunting right .

arrow2512 06-30-2010 03:40 PM

And I forgot to say .I told my son the reason why he should look for 3 or more trails coming together so he understood why that would be a good spot to put up a stand there during thr pre-rut and rut ,And by the way he took his 1st doe from the spot he put his ladderstand at . T he reason he got a deer his first year was he understood how to hunt them .Not just told to climb up a tree and pull a trigger on a gun .So many people at work take there kids out hunting put them in a tree that they put up for them stop hunting after a few season cause they thought there's nothing to it so they got bored with it .And then they shake there heading woundering why they gave up on hunting ,I told them they just got tired of going out and killing something they have no ideal how to hunt just know how to kill something .

I don't dislike Lee and Tiffany that much. But her popularity has touched off a flood of other hunting shows scrambling to try and find female hunters that they think are hot. And sadly many of them are terrible shots and way more annoying than Tiffany. Some look like they have never had a gun or bow in their hands until the week before the show. Because they probably hadn't. When I watch a hunting show I'd like to see people who seem to know what they are doing. If that happens to be a woman then fine but no amount of hotness makes me feel any better about watching these woman gut shoot and inflict double ham shots on animals.

Bottom line. If I wanna see hot chicks I'll watch a late night flick on Cinemax or buy a Playboy magazine. Keep hunting shows about hunting.

"Huntress Gone Wild" coming soon. Probably hog hunts or early season deer hunts in the South due to frostbite concerns. :party0007:

Why should I continue to have a conversation with someone who doesn't have the sense to understand the basics of what is being discussed. I think I'll let you continue with your name calling and your whining, that you refer to as a "debate", all by yourself. Have a nice day genius.

podunk kennels 07-03-2010 05:19 AM

I wish theyd do that RR, like the fishing show where you can challenge the guy to your home lake. Dont remember which fisherman it is but itd be great to see a hunting show like that.

If it was my wife you bet I would and yes I did when my son was growing up and learning to hunt. My son was always involved in picking his spot to hunt and in setting up his tree stand but so was I. When he was young I hung his stands because I wanted to make sure that when I came to get him I didn't find him hanging from his harness. Not only that I used to stand in the dark under his stand until he was settled and strapped in. I was there in case he dropped a glove or anything else that I could retrieve for him so he wouldn't have to climb back down out of his stand and then back up. I made sure that his beginning experiences did not turn into an excercises of frustration for a little boy and to help him avoid all the mistakes I had already made in the past. And I do take the fish off of my wife's hook:s4: and I did always wake up my son when we went hunting. He is grown now and very self proficient and an extremely good hunter bow or gun.

podunk kennels 07-03-2010 12:58 PM

My pop was a lot harder on me. Its different with boys and spouses. No matter what you say the way you teach someone is more or less the way you learned it. I didnt notice at first but this DOES NOT WORK with your SPOUSE. Teaching Mrs Podunk to shoot and hunt has made me realize that Im as much of a hardazz as my dad was. Ive had to change alot of my ways to keep her interested and avoid us fighting.

rustynobles 07-03-2010 07:39 PM

aww, whatever! the show's intriguing (sarcasm). the show is pretty pathetic, but i'll watch it every once in a while, just because i don't have much to do at night. i have to say, i don't know what to believe as far as her looks go. i saw her and lee at the dixie deer classic and she was "blowin' smoke" as the fellas say, but there certainly are some pretty gross pictures out there. anyway, i thought it was a decent show at first, but think it's pretty much gone down the pipes.

What I really can't stand is all those females heading out to the woods in make-up and earrings. Loose the glitz ladies.

P.S.-My wife (a long-time huntress) agrees 100% with me about that).

deernutz 07-06-2010 06:10 PM

I used to watch them alot. I still do once in awhile. The hunting industry is definately evolving quickly. She sells what shes got. Big bucks and good looks. My wife wont let me turn it on when shes around. She hunts too and says she's faking the funk for tv. It is what it is.

ParmerOutdoors 07-06-2010 08:06 PM

I agree. I'd like to have my own hunting show so I can remind the world how a good ol' boy hunts.

Valentine 07-07-2010 03:47 AM

Last one to flame anyone on TV hunting shows
 
If I didn't scout hunting web sites, I'd be in the total dark on this question. Basically, do not watch half hour hunting shows. (They are a half hour?)
Haven't watched cable television in over ten years. Survived not watching hunting shows and not watching hours and years of CNN.

Too old to watch a whole lot of "tips" and never went hunting for only a half hour. Real hunting takes a little more endurance and patience. Having been in the sporting goods business, I knew years ago, that a hunter can survive without a ton of new products.

And having seen some movies made, I think it was good I missed some of the film editing of hunting shows.

Kybuckhunter 07-07-2010 08:06 AM

I suppose you are a male model and you are dating or married to Miss America. Glad you and your wife or girl friend are perfect.....I'm glad you are qualified to put her down because most of us aren't perfect enough to make judgment on her. Thanks man. You put her in her place.

The opposite of a "butter-face", you might say. (As in, everything's good "but her face".) Seriously, I figure he loves her, and that's all that matters. My wife won't appear on the cover of Vogue anytime, but we do all right. I bet Tiffany can't fry chicken or green tomatoes like my wife, either, but I could be wrong. I, on the other hand, do not usually whack huge bucks with my bow. I do occasionally bring a good one down with my '06, though. We all have our limitations.

Mr. Longbeard 07-08-2010 03:15 AM

I'll be the first one to say she wouldn't make a pimple on a real hunters @$$... But as far as her looks go... I think she's pretty hot... Definetly not hard to look at...

newton29 07-08-2010 02:56 PM

I second the motion. All in agreement say "Aye".

KYBUCKHUNTER-My wife is not a model nor AM I. And I have seen her in other pic,she looks nice in those but the one they've posted on here is bad .If you think that pic of her is hot then my friend you need to get your eyes check soon .And don't tell me you've never made a comment about someones looks or body if your telling me that then i would have to say your not telling the truth .

I think she is a very pretty lady..... My point is you always see guys putting women down for not looking good enough when in fact most of the guys are fat, bald, and out of shape themselves. I don't think it's her job to make herself into the image that fits your ideal women. Everyone has different taste for sure. I just don't see the need to put her down for not fitting your idea of perfect. Do all women on hunting shows need to be a model?

trmichels 07-10-2010 06:15 PM

Yep, how many of you guys have the chance to hunt areas that have been heavily scouted for several years (often by an outfitter), and managed for trophy racks?

And how often do you get a call to come down and shoot a vidoe on that property to promote the property and its hunts, or endores products?

Although these might be free-range deer, they are basicaly canned hunts, where someone knows where there is big buck or two, and when the conditions are right for deer hunting, you call a professional hunter, and they fly in, go where they are told to go, sit in a stand that has alredy been placed for this hunt, and the deer walk by - possibly the big one someone has been patterning for three weeks - for this hunt and
TV show.

I'd rather learn from Mike Weaver and Myles Keller, the current #1 and #2 P&Y whitetail buck hunters (nubers of trophy racks), and both long-time friends. They hunt public land, or private land, usually without the aid of an outfitter, by understanding deer and knowing when and where to go under most conditions to hunt trophy whitetails. Beteween the two of them they have over 30 bucks that will score over 120. Or how about my friend Roger Raglin ...

I don't hunt the way most TV personalities do, and I don't write that way. I hope I write and talk about techniques you guys (who may not have a lot of time to scout, or hunt) can use, and provide you with some of my shortcuts to reading sign, and choosing the right place to set up, at the right time of day - by patterning deer with as little amount of time and effort as you can spend on it.

That is my goal, to help you get it done faster and easier.

Or you can spend a lot of time on scouting because I'll give you a ton of information on the biology and bahavior/habits of deer. Once you understand deer, it is a heck of a lot easier to hunt them.

God bless,

What a bunch of homos! Anyone with anything bad to say about Tiffany should have their man card revoked immediately.

PY Antlers 07-13-2010 10:37 AM

Everyone is entitled to there own opinion. Lee and Tiff and there shows are simply an example of american free enterprise. Bottom line is, good looking women and sex sells product anywhere in the world, period.

dc240nt 07-13-2010 05:45 PM

Many times I have posted my thoughts on the Lakosky's, including within this forum. I dont like them, never have and never will. I know thier roots and many behind the scenes friends. They are more ego driven then just about any other person within the business. especially her. Comments such as "you wont carry my bag? Maybe you dont who I am?" That dont sit well with down to earth people. Next time you see these two at a sport show, ask them how Dale Earnhart Jr is doing. I heard over a year ago from a person within the industry that these two are on thier way out.

T Lakosky 08-16-2010 07:51 PM

Hi there,
Wow you are a rough group! It took me a bit to decide if I was going to even respond to some of the things that have been written, as some of your comments are just plain mean, some are not true and some are absurd, but of course it's easy to post all of these things when you are a nameless face behind a computer.

Hope you all have a great and safe hunting season.

Tiffany Lakosky

T Lakosky 08-16-2010 07:52 PM

For the record in regards to the post in front of mine, I carry my own bag and always have, and have NEVER EVER said what you posted, and I don't watch Nascar and have never met a driver.

2 Lunger 08-16-2010 08:29 PM

It amazes me how many people sit here and slam other people out of pure jealousy. Anyone of you that have bashed the Lakosky's or any other pro hunter would also jump at the moment to be doing the same as they are. I would probably have to call anyone who says different a liar. Would you all rather be working your boring 9 to 5 jobs or living the dream of hunting/scouting whitetail 365 days a year?

bigbulls 08-16-2010 09:24 PM

Tiffany, since you are commenting here take some advice from one "regular" hunter (or not). This is my opinion of most all of the current "hunting" (I use that term loosely) shows.

We are sick and tired of seeing yet another "big buck down" that you have given names to and watched grow up over the years through your game cameras over another manicured 5+ acre food plot. Get out and hunt. In the real world of hunting deer like "Gnarles Barkley" don't walk out into the middle of a field during broad day light. The fact that you would also hunt elk over these same types of food plots with Jackie Bushman is just disgusting.

For Gods sake not everything that happens on hunting shows or every buck you kill is "unbelievable". You celebrity hunters must use that word a dozen times a show. It's not unbelievable, you do the same dang thing day in and day out. We've all seen it a hundred times. We believe it by now. You kill big bicks on big food plots.

We really don't care what some new celebrity country singer kills off of your or any one else's farm. If you want to impress the "regular" hunters that are buying the crap you are pushing why not try inviting hard working Joes" or hard working Soldiers, Sailors or Airmen to hunt your pet deer. Go on some hunts with Average Joes on their home turf and introduce them to some of your tips and tactics (other than buying land and growing deer) to kill big bucks.

Quit changing sponsors like you change underwear and quit touting the newest "gizmo" as the best thing to the hunting industry since the introduction of gun powder. We aren't that stupid. Give the 30 minute infomercial a rest. We all know that a 50 caliber projectile fired from any other ML rifle will kill the deer just as dead as the one fired from your Thompson Center. Or an arrow fired from any other bow other than Mathews will kill the deer just as dead. Give it a rest already.

Quit with the rehersed play backs leading up to the shot and the recovery. They are as fake as Pamela Andersons boobs. You aren't fooling any one. Show the hunt for what it really is. You are killing an animal. We want to see the blood, the entrance wound, the tracking, etc... etc... all of it. If you are going to show the shot in slow motion then show the whole dang shot. Don't cut away right when the arrow gets there.

Basically get some morals with your shows.


BTW, I feel the same way about Michael Waddells shows (played out more than a 10 cent hooker on nickle night) and IMO he is a heck of a nice guy too, Buckmasters (Jackie's as worthless at two ticks on a hound dogs butt), The Drury shows (arrogance personified), Mathews TV (could there be a bigger infomercial?), Huntin the world "southern style" (give me a firggin break), basically most of it is all the same crap from one show to the next.

My comments are based entirely on the basis of the typical "celebrity hunter" being as disconnected from the average hunter as Obama is disconnected from the American public.

I would absolutely hate it if I had to pay the bills by hunting. I never want to have to make a passion of mine into a job.

Call me a liar if you wish but that's how I feel about it. There are few celebrity hunters that actually command any respect IMO.

T Lakosky 08-16-2010 11:17 PM

Hey Bigbulls,

Fair enough, appreciate your comments, may not agree but that is the great thing about living in the USA, I don't have to.

Best of luck this year.
Tiffany

Bigbulls, it would seem to me that the best thing you could do is turn off your TV or change the channel. Obviously, not everyone shares your views.

Whitetailaddict13 08-17-2010 05:50 AM

id rather watch Rick White or Greg Miller. or my personal favorite, Stan Potts. Stan gets more fired up over killing whitetails than anyone ive seen. He gets me pumped just watching it. i watch the crushsometimes. i prefer to see them hunt there farm in iowa.

I don't know if I would jump on it or not. I feel so much more accomplishment hunting, not growing wt's and then shooting them.

I have killed some nice deer and I tell ya the one I felt the best about was a 7pt 16" spread killed on heavily hunted public land. Not even near my largest deer.

I was always told, never try to work doing what you love. You will end up hating it. I can see that.

Wow... I really DON'T like watching Potts. He gets WAAAAAY too fired up over killing whitetails. Gets a crazed look on his face that appears to be of intense anger and/or bloodlust. YES!!!

The Lakoskys seem like genuinely nice people who truly enjoy what they do. If they can get sponsors to help pay for their adventures, more power to them... I'd do the same thing. (I think my wife's as pretty as Tiffany :), but, for some odd reason, she just doesn't seem to like hunting, so I suspect my chances of getting sponsors range from about zero to nil..).


Edit: Almost forgot... Since Tiffany is here, my suggestion for the show: Stop using that darned fish-eye lens in your close-ups!
